Hello, we are delighted to share the 2020-21 BU PIER Partnership Annual report with you. This year’s report is packed full of examples, testimonies and case studies from the 2020-21 academic year. These illustrate how we worked together across our community to embed lived experience expertise in all aspects of health and social science education and research at BU and how all of our activity was richer for it. We are looking forward to expanding this across BU research in the coming year. We hope you enjoy reading it.
Kind regards
Mel, Angela and Pete
